For those who weren't at the annual gathering in Ventura:
The Desert Fishes Council at its 2007 annual meeting in Ventura
California bestowed its first Lifetime Service Award to Clark and
Catherine Hubbs in appreciation of their long service to the Desert
Fishes Council and their lifetime commitment to the conservation and
restoration of our natural resource heritage. With this award, the
Desert Fishes Council recognizes the lifetime involvement of Clark
with the biology and plight of many desert fishes; begun as a
youngster and continuing throughout a professional career spanning
seven decades. Sharing this award is his life partner, Catherine,
whose support and encouragement for not only Clark but also his
students and colleagues, continues to be an inspiration to us all.
A digital (unsigned) replica of the framed certificate presented to
Dr. and Mrs. Hubbs at the meeting is available here.
Best of luck to the Hubbs' and all DFC members in the new year,
- Stewart
